Tales of girls with anxiety coping and kicking ass

Writing Progress October 29 – November 4, 2018

Thoughts: Today was odd. I decided I wanted to keep writing in the final days leading up to NaNoWriMo, but I spent most of the day chatting about NaNo with people on Twitter and Discord. I’m not upset about this, but it’s a bit odd to think one thing and end up doing another without an external influence.

Tomorrow’s goal: More writing or not. I’m not pressuring myself to do anything.

Thoughts: Today was pretty productive! I love productive days! I hope I can build on this momentum for NaNoWriMo.

Tomorrow’s goal: More writing! Maybe I should rest up before the writing marathon begins, but I’ve done that in previous years and I just don’t feel like doing it again this year.

October 31

Project: Inbetween

Total word count: 203,566

Today’s word count: 98

Thoughts: I wrote a bit, but NaNoWriMo excitement kept me away from writing. It seems silly considering it is a writing event, but I was too busy talking about it during hours leading up to midnight to do much else.

Tomorrow’s goal: NANOWRIMO!

November 1

Project: The Dreams

Total word count: 47,957

Today’s word count: 1,830

Thoughts: It was the first day of NaNoWriMo. What more can I say? The energy was great for writing.

Tomorrow’s goal: More writing. More NaNoWriMo. Let’s hope I can ignore the fact that it is Friday.

November 2

Project: The Dreams

Total word count: 48,873

Today’s word count: 916

Thoughts: Ugh. Fridays are hard. I tried. Considering how most of my Fridays go, this was an extremely successful day and if it was any other day of the week my word count would be astronomical.

Tomorrow’s goal: More writing. Tomorrow is Double Up Day. I’m going to try to write two days worth of words in one day. Let’s see how that goes!

November 3

Project: The Dreams

Total word count: 49,834

Today’s word count: 961

Thoughts: Today wasn’t bad. I’m still managing to get decent word counts, but they’re not good enough for NaNoWriMo. I need to focus on writing more and other weekend things less.

Tomorrow’s goal: Find time to write around the weekend stuff. I have another busy day ahead of me so this might be a bit of a challenge.

November 4

Project: The Dreams

Total word count: 51,045

Today’s word count: 1,211

Thoughts: I was out of the house for most of the day. When I got home I was exhausted. Somehow I still managed to write a decent number of words. It wasn’t enough to get caught up for NaNoWriMo, but I’m not complaining.

Tomorrow’s goal: More writing. I know I can do it. I have the time. I have the motivation!
